    Great video Ryo. I'm in NZ and trying to grow aquatic plants in my greenhouse, not very successful however you have highlighted where I could be going wrong. I only spray my plants morning and night but as they are aquatic I like how you keep water above the soil so they keep hydrated. I'm going to give this a go so thank you

    That is so cool !
    I just got back in the hobby, had disastrous results with a sterile tank about 10 years ago and sold everything in an access of rage.
    This time I will go 100% natural.
    I was worried that I don't have enough plants to begin with. Fall comes quick in north of Canada. I was just in time to get some in the lake before they all froze and died.
    Now that I know I can grow them inside (and quick!) I will get to it asap maybe with more exotic plants comming from a store.

    Thank you for your tutorial. Doing this outdoors brings unwanted bugs inside into your aquariums. Maybe use a net of some kind over the plants would help keep bugs out but it definitely wouldn't keep them all out. But as long as you dont mind the bugs then it doesnt matter, seeing as plants usually grow much better outside.

    Hi Ryo. Do you have any tips of reintroducing to a newly set up aquarium?
    For example, I’d be keen to know if emersed growth trimmings can establish quickly enough to provide the planting “bulk” to reduce risk of algae early on in a new high tech tank? (would they need have roots or are cuttings ok)?
    Thank you!

    Hey mate! Absolute awesome work with all your aquatic mini plant farms! They’re looking amazing bro also just thinking you could possibly... if you built the rack out of wood, connecting them all up with small PVC piping an each one in slightly lowered pigeonholes leading down to the bottom with a ( blacked out fish tank ) with an overflow and a pump pushing the water up to the first mini aquaponic plant farm? lots of fish in a sump tank may help with the plants.

  • @marshaw652
    @marshaw652 3 роки тому +2

    Great farm! I've been meaning to do exactly that for months. I need to get the supplies to build the shelves, because it will be where my dogs go outside. I don't want my dachshunds playing in the plants. They are the main reason I haven't done this yet. Very smart, but nosy dogs. Plus they seem to be able to break into or out of anywhere they want. 🙄 It's a bit annoy spending a weekend building a fence to have them take 30 minutes to get around it....
    Can this be done with mosquito inhibitor in the containers? I don't want to cause a mosquito outbreak. My husband was complaining about the rainwater I was collecting, said there was mosquito larva. He's actually allergic to the popular mosquito repellant so he really, really isn't a fan of me having water sitting out.
